      Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Leek Tomato Quinoa and Roasted Garlic Sauce

      For Sauce-While preparing the sauce, you should preheat the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Together with two cups of whole milk and two large heads of garlic (1/3 trimmed) you would add them in a small saucepan. You would leave saucepan uncovered with medium heat for ten minutes. Doing this allows it to simmer. Once done after ten minutes, drain milk and put garlic in an ovenproof dish small in size. There you would pour half cup of olive oil over it and let it cool. Ensure dish is covered tightly with regular foil.

      In the oven let garlic bake for 55 minutes or until soft. Then, spoon garlic out from dish and pour olive oil into a measuring cup; if you required more oil add as necessary to measure at ½ a cup total. Remove peel from garlic and put into blender. You are going to add ½ cup of low-salt chicken broth, garlic, and olive oil. Then puree until smooth, you may thin with more broth as you desire. Add salt and pepper to season. For Beef- Barbecue grill is turned to medium heat. Brush oil over beef and lightly shake salt and pepper to season. Place beef on warm grill and let it grill to desired doneness (it is good to turn it often to allow both sides to grill). Do this for about twenty-two minutes for a medium-rare finish. Let it stand for five minutes after removing from grill. Then, slice crosswise at 1/3 inch thick slices.
